South Waterfront Park

South Waterfront Park Overview

Portland's 25-year dream of reclaiming its waterfront was realized with the completion of South Waterfront Park, which runs 1,000 feet along the bank of the Willamette River. Unique along the downtown riverfront, this gorgeous setting is ideal for your special wedding celebration. The form of the river is carried up into the park via the flowing forms of the site grading and planting, as well as a pair of boulder-lined pathways sculpted into the riverbank leading to a natural silty beach that is exposed at the base of these pathways during periods of low water. Your guests will be in awe as you exchange vows nestled in nature near the river. The canoe launch, paved walking paths and statues create a tranquil setting of beauty as you celebrate the most romantic day of your life. Enjoy South Waterfront Park for an outdoor wedding with family and friends in beautiful Portland.
